Q: You have the most interesting release notes. What’s your favorite bug and what caused it?
A: It’s probably boring for me to say, but I just can’t beat the drunken cat bug. There’ve been a few videos made about it by this point. That was the one where the cats were showing up dead all over the tavern floor, and it turned out they were ingesting spilled alcohol when they cleaned their paws. One number was off in the ingest-while-cleaning code, and it sent them through all the symptoms of alcohol poisoning (which we added when we spruced up venomous creatures.)
